Generalizations to be avoided
In General, is not the idea that all "GeneralizationsAreBad" something of an over-generalization? For without simple-minded generalizations, most of the press go out-of-business. That again, perhaps it is not such a bad idea? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.20.248.186 (talk) 19:15, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

- 92.20.248.186, since his userpage states it's meant to be a joke, I wouldn't put much into it. Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 21:43, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
"After World War II, Boss was fined for his support of Nazism and was not allowed to vote"
Wait a God damn minute! The post-war German government strongly condemned the policies of Nazi Germany, but practiced the same laws on their enemies? The irony is so thick it makes me furious, furious I tell you! Jonas Vinther • (Click here to collect your price!) 21:51, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- I'm afraid I am not an expert on post-war German politics and the Denazification process, I'm sorry. :( But I can see the conflict. GAB 22:03, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
High Fantasy
Hello GAB Could you please remove the critics section from High Fantasy? The other RPG sections do not have a critics section to define their work. Your sections takes up more space than anything relevant about the game or it's author. Could you imagine a critics section on D&D. I remember all the articles and law suits claiming playing the game leads to death and murder. I could help you find more relevant material if you need help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.6.53.53 (talk) 23:47, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

- Thank you! Least I could do, really. GAB 22:00, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
More Vandalism
The same people trying to vandalise the Hearts of Iron 4 article moved to another one, the https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Paradox_Interactive I'd also recommend to revert to a version made before 23/24 of october and locking it down.
143.107.252.207 (talk) 22:30, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for your vigilance. I'm reverting the vandalism and requesting blocks. GAB 22:32, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
- No problem. They will probably try another page of games made by Paradox Interactive and classified as Grand Strategy (like the Europa Universalis 4 page), I will try to keep an eye on it. 143.107.252.207 (talk) 22:34, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
- Sounds good. Don't hesitate to contact me, or go to WP:RFPP or WP:AIV. GAB 22:35, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
Hurricane Patricia (disambiguation page)
Can you please stop reverting my edits on Hurricane Patricia (disambiguation), many reliable sources are already given in the main article so there is no need to cite the same sources again. Disambiguation pages usually do not need sources, most disambiguation pages here on Misplaced Pages don't need to repeat the sources that are already listed in the more detailed article. And if you check on many disambiguation pages for hurricane names you will find the same unsourced material, but that does not mean that it is not valid, or that it has not been previously sourced on each main article. 190.56.62.67 (talk) 20:14, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
- Alright. Sorry for the trouble. GAB 21:25, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
